While many spent Thanksgiving weekend relaxing with family and friends, the Partner Real Estate staff team flew across the ocean to Cebu, Philippines to host our Partner Real Estate Staff Team Symposium 2025 — a powerful, collaborative event focused on sharpening our systems, elevating our support structure, and improving the way we serve our real estate agents and clients.
This weekend was not just a meeting.
It was a reminder of what makes Partner Real Estate different.
It was a celebration of the “team behind the team.”
And most importantly…
It showcased why agents on the Rudy Lira Kusuma Home Selling Team are able to succeed at a level that most traditional agents simply cannot.
A Team System Built for Agent Success
The Partner Real Estate model—developed and led by Rudy Lira Kusuma—is built on one core belief:
“Agents should focus on high-value, face-to-face activities. The staff team handles everything else.”
This allows our agents to become more productive, more profitable, and more balanced — while clients enjoy a world-class 5-star experience.
The purpose of the staff team is clear:
Support → Systemize → Scale → Protect the Agent’s Time
How Our Staff Team Benefits Our Agents
During the Symposium, each department refined the systems that allow our agents to operate like top producers — even if they’re brand new.
Below is a breakdown of our staff structure and how each role directly supports the success of every Partner Real Estate associate.

- Client care
Team Leader = Vision + Growth + Systems
Rudy Lira Kusuma focuses on:
- Strategy
- Leadership

- Expansion
This Thanksgiving, our staff came together to refine, improve, and elevate these systems — ensuring our agents continue to have the best support in the industry.
